Pros

People care about the customers and the work. Very intelligent and talented. Clearly defined corporate vision. Flagship platform, MindTap, has good momentum in the marketplace and as a technology platform.

Cons

The execution of its corporate strategy is baffling to middle management and individual contributors. High turnover Cultural clashes between the traditional print and the newer technology/digital folks
